Brand Ambassador Inspiration - Zesty Cards

 Bonjour !

Izzy here with two inspiration cards that I'm combining with the current challenge over at Addicted to Stamps and More where I used the beautiful layering stencil Zesty.

Playing with this stencil for my Addicted to Stamps and More card, I wanted to give even more love to it so I made this two zesty cards, just the ones you like to receive in summer.


For this first one, I used 2 layers of this stencil set to make the coloured background with Catherine Pooler "Limoncello" and Distress "Mustard seed & Twisted Citron" inks. 

To add a bit of dimension, I added the third layer with the juicy splashes on which I only drew the outlines with a black fine liner. I flat adhered this panel on a double green card.


On a white card stock, I stamped this gorgeous lemon from the Organically Zesty set. With Prismacolor pencils I softly coloured it. Then I fussy cut it and I glued it on a green die cut circle.

To finish, I adhered this lemon on the double card and I stamped the sentiment coming from the same Organically Zesty set.



For my second card, I only used one of the 4 stencils of this layering set. On a square pastel blue card stock, I first used the stencil as an embossing folder. Then I filled in the blank spaces by stencilling with a blue colour pencil.




I had on my desk for a long time these two cocktail glasses, and I thought they would be great on this embossed panel. So I coloured them with new pastel coloured pencils and I fussy cut them.

To finish my card, I flat adhered the embossed panel on a double pastel blue card, I glued the two glasses and I stamped the sentiment coming from the Organically Zesty set.

And now here is a sneak peek of the card I made with this stencil for the Addicted to Stamps and More challenge...


I hope that I inspired you to make fresh and zesty cards. I really love the layering stencil Zesty and the Organically Zesty set that you can find HERE and HERE.

Thanks so much for visiting today. Have a fabulous day and get crafty !

When Life Gives You Lemons...Smile!

Happy Friday.

It's definitely a happy day when the sunshine finally makes a good appearance AND when a batch of Uniko Stencil Restocks arrive!





These beauties, along with the sell out Flower Power #4 from the recent release are now available on the website. All orders containing a stencil backorder were mailed out this morning. Thank you for your patience.

I was inspired to get inky this afternoon and decided to give the Layering Stencil - Zesty a fresh ink up to create this colourful card.





I used all four layers of the stencil for this card, inking up the sliced fruits first in shades of pink, orange, green and aqua. I angled the stencils slightly before inking to add a different look to the card.

Once I finished inking the fruit, I added the juice splatter using Nuvo Glimmer Moonstone Paste, absolutely love the sparkle of this stuff. 




My sentiment choice is partly from Organically Zesty, where I have masked part of the stamped sentiment. This was so I could add the Smile die cut which is from the Uniko Picked Posies Collection. This is available for purchase from CraftStash HERE.

That's all from me today, but I will be back tomorrow with more creative inspiration and a winner!
